Weapons leads Labor Day weekend with a $12 million four-day total, while Jaws re-release earns $9.7 million, nearing $134 million domestic total for the year, industry reports show.

  • Zach Cregger's horror film Weapons returned to number one at the North American box office over Labor Day weekend with $12.4 million.
  • The 50th anniversary re-release of Steven Spielberg's Jaws secured second place, benefiting from a late-summer boost amid a troubled 2025 summer season.
  • Austin Butler's crime thriller Caught Stealing debuted third with a four-day gross of $9.5 million across 3,578 theaters and received a B CinemaScore from audiences.
  • Jaws played in 3,200 venues earning $9.8 million over Labor Day's four days, while Weapons has totaled $134.6 million domestically to date.
  • The summer box office likely ended just below last year's $3.67 billion, with the Jaws re-release providing a modest boost despite missing the pre-pandemic $4 billion benchmark.
